Cursed - Yeonbin

> 93

„So... Soobin will die From This sooner or later?", Taeyong asks.

„How can you still be asking if Yeonjun just got himself killed for Soobin. Okay that sounds weird but it's literally what just happened.", Byeongkwan answers.

„As Long As I'm here I won't let him die. It doesn't matter if I do, I come back anyways.", I answer, laughing a bit.

It's weird being so open, but at the same time feels freeing to talk to them about it. I don't do this often.

„Yeah but when you're not there then what...", Jaebeom mumbles.

„Let that be my worry, I've lived like this for some years now after all.", Soobin tells them, sitting on the couch with his legs to his body, arms around them, almost turning himself into a ball.

„Let's continue with Taehyun then.

„Nighthunt from Hell"

A curse, as mysterious as it's unknown where it's from.
It suddenly appears, catching their victim off guard, transforming them right away.
The most common form the victim takes on is the hell dog, a black dog about the size up to the hip of a human and a bit bigger. Their fur is black, long and tends to fly around, making it look like there's Black flames surrounding the cursed.
Another form is the hell horse, more rare and bigger than a human.
It's black as well, the mane actually consisting of black hell fire.
Both have abilities of hell's powers, but it's only a small part.
They can't decide to transform, it always happens during the night and reverses once it's morning.
They're like normal people or animals, except the facts listed above, not having any other special powers.

The curse vanishes after 5 to 10 years without any traces left behind."

„That's the form he is in right now. The other one is what we all know, the human Taehyun. Though I like this form as well, I wouldn't even mind it you had that curse forever!", Beomgyu as he goes to hug and pat Taehyun.

„The reason why he never goes out with us in the evenings...", Bambam mumbles.

„Exactly. I got to know Beomgyu and Yeonjun through fleeing here, I was hunted. It often happens when we're seen since usually if a hell dog or horse appear it's not a good thing.", Taehyun answers.

„The definition for hell dog and hell horse.

„Hell Dog"

A Dog, serving the underworld, their job is to protect it from intruders or keeping those who are trapped there where they are.
They're loyal, fast and have a strong jaw, being able to rip apart anything and everything.
Despite seeming aggressive they aren't much different like a per dog when tamed or befriended.
The only difference is their appearance and the power to control a small amount of hell flames, which are black.

„Hell Horse"

Black Horses, their mane consisting of black hell fire.
They're used for transportation, though their temper is something that's hard to control and what makes them dangerous or difficult.
Other than that and being faster than normal horses they don't differ from the normal ones.
They also need less food."

„So who here knew about Taehyun?", Chan asks through the people.

„Us four. Me, Jisung, Chenle and Jongho. We thought of him like our boss, since we were fascinated. But knowing it's a curse and now hearing about the other ones that are way worse... I think I'm starting to understand why both Beomgyu and Taehyun listen to Yeonjun. And why they respect him.", Jaebeom answers, the other three nodding in agreement.

„I leave it up to yourself. It's your choice and I can't change that. Just keep in mind that there will probably always be certain things I can't tell you, either because to protect you or because even if you would listen to me for your whole life, I still wouldn't have told everything."

„Is that why you sometimes like space out?", Soobin asks, referring to when I visited him or he came over and I stopped talking suddenly.

„Yes. I'm often stuck in the past or think about the things again, it happens from time to time. Though it's less now since you guys keep my mind occupied."
